§01 — Six-Axis Assessment

Red = warning
01/06Sugar loadRed

Sugar is the 2nd ingredient and invert sugar is also added (4th ingredient), which meets the RED threshold of sugar in the top-3 ingredients.

02/06Processing tierRed

The ingredient list includes multiple industrial additives—emulsifiers (E322, E471) and flour treatment agents (E223, E1101)—consistent with NOVA Group 4 ultra-processed biscuits; since another axis is also flagged (Sugar load RED), this meets the RED threshold.

03/06Fat profilePending

Saturated fat and trans fat per 100g are not provided, and there is no label value for trans fat to evaluate the thresholds.

04/06SodiumPending

Sodium per 100g is not provided on the available product pages, so the sodium threshold

05/06Marketing deceptionPending

The specific front-of-pack/on-pack claims are not documented in the provided sources (beyond general product description), so claim-vs-composition

06/06Regulatory historyPending

No cited regulatory records (FSSAI/ASCI/court) are provided in the sources, so regulatory history
